[OpenSIPS-Users] Radius CDR records depend who hangs up first

[John Quick]

Zahid,

An excellent suggestion, but unfortunately it did not change the behaviour. I noticed that the
reported From/To address for the IP phone is different in the two CDR records. In the first record
(associated with the INVITE) it is:
sip:1234 at mysipdomain.com

In the second record it is:
sip:1234@<my_ip_address>

Perhaps this difference is relevant. If so, no doubt the Asterisk gateway is to blame - it usually is!
